In individuals with adequate fat for harvesting, fat grafting is achieved from fatgrafting. Sculpted areas of excess fat may include the jowls, face, abdomen, flanks, back, the tail bone, thighs, and many other sites. The harvested fat can then processed and injected in layered fashion into the specified area. Additional sessions may be required.
Generally, several sessions are required.
